| About Tane's Tree Trust: |
Tane's Tree Trust vision is to see the majority of New Zealand landowners successfully planting and sustainably managing indigenous trees for multiple uses by 2020.
Our Objectives:
In order to realise the vision; the foundational objectives of the Trust are to promote indigenous forestry as an attractive land use.
The objectives of Tane's Tree Trust include:
- building a network of knowledge sharing amongst stakeholders;
- retrieval of past incomplete research projects pertaining to establishment, growth and productive use of indigenous tree species;
- the establishment of new research projects;
- maximising the economic incentives for establishing indigenous trees by reducing establishment costs;
- resolving taxation, legal and political obstacles currently serving as disincentives to the planting of indigenous trees;
- raising funds to undertake the above. |
